Goodbye Flies!

We moved into our new home at the tail end of 'fly' season.   The most disgusting season of all!  I didn't even know there was such a season!  We were bombarded by hundreds of flies in our house at all times!  We went through 6-8 fly swatters!  Nothing more disgusting to me than a fly in my kitchen....let alone hundreds of them!  Everyone we talked to about them said it was 'a bad year for flies' and 'it's just that time of the year!'  Oh joy, I can hardly wait until next year!  But we will be wise to them next year! 

Scott already swapped out the hinges on our exterior doors for self closing hinges!  With this many kids going in and out the doors, they were constantly left open!  Not anymore!  But the last few days the temperature has dropped and we're down to a handful of flies in the house in the morning when we wake up.  The change in temperature makes them very slow!  Easy targets now!! 

And to think a few pesky crickets used to annoy me at the house in Arizona....at least they stayed out of my kitchen!
